I look them in my cookbooks or on the internet…. I’m in Brazil, but I’ll look one up when I get home.

I am really surprised to see that Welsh Rarebit has crossed the pond! (Albeit several decades ago.)
It is, at it's most basic, just cheese on toast. But the addition of English mustard (and it really does need to be that strong version in this - American mustard or French mustard will not do), and brown ale - again, not pale ale or lager - does elevate it to a rather different animal than just "cheese on toast".
I have made two different versions this year - one was thicker, and designed to go on toast, the other was just this week, and a more liquid sauce to go with cauliflower. I will find the older recipe and post both. (They were both delicious.)

@jennyema and @KatyCooks I do like those TNT recipes. There are so many recipes for it out there. I tried two different ones and neither had much flavor.

Yeah, if you have a couple of hours to look it up. I find I use them less and less. Most of them are just plain silly.
And many of them have more than one saying so what's the point?

I remember a much shorter list here - one that was much more cooking related. I couldn't find it.

We are very helpful most of the time.
So I wasn't completely wrong about Welsh rarebit being cheese on toast, but adding English mustard and ale. I used to eat toasted cheese sandwiches, so not the real Welsh rarebit, quite often when I lived in London, at home or from the snack bar near my office, at lunchtime, Winters were cold there and very long.
